Yes, I was - if AP Econ is not offered, then your child cannot be penalized for not taking it.
(My other question was because, even if selective colleges won’t consider Personal Finance a social science, she may already have a rigorous senior schedule that would make that class an acceptable trade-off in their eyes - but here the case is moot.
So, generally speaking, PF wouldn’t be a social science for college admission purpose but students at your school wouldn’t be penalized since it’s basically the only choice.
